In magnetic materials with antisymmetric exchange interactions, novel particle-like spin textures called magnetic skyrmions can appear and be manipulated by electrons. First observed in 2009, they ...

The basics of digital logic are pretty easy to master, and figuring out how the ones and zeroes flow through various kinds of gates is often an interesting exercise. Taking things down a level and ...

My first engineering job was when I was in college working for a famous professor who was a leading error detection and correction theorist. He had a contract for a ...

In a potential quantum computer breakthrough, scientists have shown that entangling atoms from different elements can address the problems of quantum memory errors while functioning within a logic ...

In a current trend of SoC Design, IC’s are becoming more and more complex so the challenges of meeting all the design requirements have become increasingly difficult. Expectations from current SoC’s ...

Spin doctors: Menno Veldhorst and Andrew Dzurak with their CNOT gate The first quantum-logic device made from silicon has been unveiled by researchers in Australia and Japan. Their controlled-not ...

Teaching students about logic gates is often done in two parts, once on the whiteboard for the theory, and again on the breadboard for the practice. [shurik179] wasn’t a fan of the abstraction between ...
